Can't find the Sparkle? Craig is here to help

The Topps 60th anniversary is all about diamonds. Topps confirmed several days ago there were 60 sparkle variations in the set.

I can tell, we're all seeing a theme here.

It was difficult to find some of the sparkles on many of the cards. I must have looked at a David Price card for about five minutes until I determined the “sparkle” was just something on the Rays' jersey.

Craig's Topps Baseball card site has made it easier for collectors to spot the sparkle variants. He has pictures of all the variations and shows exactly where collectors should look for the card.

If you're trying to build the set, good luck. Some of these cards are going for high dollars, including the one of my main man Derek Jeter.
